It made my day, really.
Other than that, we are in the midst of home improvement projects. And by we, I mean Bryan. The kids are in bed, which at this point in the weekend, is really the safest place for them to be. They have pushed me way over the edge today. Tomorrow is the start of another week. Dad sees Dr. Kelly on Wednesday, chemo on Thursday, and the crappy cycle starts all over again. But.... as I try to focus on the little things: I can finally get my hair in two pigtails (see here to recall the hair trauma of '07), a friend of mine at the Roasterie had them custom make a blend of chocolate hazelnut for me, and I am getting ready to put on my monkey shoes and go on a long ass, much needed walk. It's hard to sometimes remember that there is still goodness in my life, but it's there, no matter how small it may be.

Pigtails make me happy! Glad to here you've achieved pigtaily-ness.
About damn time, too. It was a really bad haircut, the dude didn't do at all what I asked! I had never cried about my hair up until that day!
my pleasure. I really have enjoyed your wit candor and honesty. so sorry about your Dad :(
I also am impressed that you are one of the few people that I read that are smart enough to do tracy's style of training( adapted of course, as it should be). I am so amazed more women don't emulate( or try to ) her approach to training and eating. baffles me.
keep on writing and swinging!

Tracy is the reason I wanted to buy my first kettlebell. After trying everything to get in shape after three kids, I was beyond frustrated. She truly inspired me, and continues to! I still can't believe the way Kbs have changed my life and body. I never thought I'd be this strong, and I know that my body is only going to get better. My first KB was a NINE pound one - and I could only do 60 reps! I still marvel at that - how in a year and a half, I've gone from that to 26 and 35 lb KBs, and reps in the 400-600 range! It still amazes me.
RKC is in my future someday, when crap with my Dad is... over, whatever that means. Thanks again for the add!
